| TRISTAR METER-2 |
|
|
| DIGITAL DISPLAYS FOR TRISTAR CONTROLLERS |
|
|
|
|
| Morningstar’s TriStar Meter-2 (TS-M-2) and TriStar
Remote Meter-2 (TS-RM-2)
are advanced digital meters that |
| may be used with any TriStar™ solar controller. These two
meters are identical except that the TS-M-2 is mounted |
| on the controller and the TS-RM-2 is flush mounted up to
30 meters (98.4 feet) away from the controller. |
|
|
|
| The TriStar meters are 2 x 16 character LCD’s that
display extensive system and controller information, logged |
| data, bar graph metering as well as alarms and faults for
easy troubleshooting. The information may be shown |
| in English, French, German, Portuguese or Spanish
languages. |
|
|
|
|
| In multi-controller systems the TS-M-2 and TS-RM-2 are
networkable using Morningstar’s MeterHub to allow |
| individual controller data and aggregate system data to
be displayed together on a single meter. |
